why trading is the worst.

21 Jun, 2025

1. high scalability: you can lose as much money as you want.
2. high leveragability: your losses can be magnified.
3. uncapped learning ceiling: perfection is unattainable.
4. ubiquitous: suffocating.
5. low dependency: its all on you.
6. low barrier-to-entry: everyone thinks they can do it.
7. the playing pool doesn't (really) change: if you suck, too bad—you'll still be playing with pros.
